south to get true statement OF her
history, but the reports there were as
conflicting as elsewhere. Lizzie Carlton
persisted with her dying breath that
she was ofpure Caucasian blood, that
her mother, Portuguese, on reaching
this country, being dark brunette,
formed the acquaintance OF wealthy
planter in New Orleans, who became so
infatuated that he took her to his home
and to conceal his purpose from his
wife passed the woman offas slave
her complexion enabling her to pass for
light mulatto. Lizzie was the offspring
OF this illicit strategy, and the planter
dyingsuddenly and without disclosing
the true character OF his mistress,
who also died soon after, Lizzie, quite
a child. descended to the heirs with the
other property The estate was left
involved and Lizzie was sold on the
block to the planter who afterward
pursued her to Louisville. She further
explained that the young man who
fled with her to Louisville was her half
brother-the son OF her mothers Sc
ducer-and that she fled to escape the
prosecutions of her new master, who
persisted in soliciting favors she
would not concede.
"A few pitied, while more blamed
the unfortunate woman for having
imposed herself rs they call it, on the
community, and for having married
into one OF the best families But
time soon melowed the harshness OF
the Judgment and made many believe
her story to have been true in all
respects. Many ofour Oldest inhabit-
ants believe she was indeed the daugh-
ter OF n Portuguese woman, and was
the innocent victim of the unholy
love which drove her parents to the
base subterfuge. Their sudden death
was the cause OF all her woes. Even
her ostensibe master may have
been innocent OF her true history
How terrible were the sins OF the
parents visited on the child"
"And Lizzie Cartons son, the of
spring of her marriage with Mr.. s., is
he still living?"
"His life is shrouded in mystery
Soon after the death of Philip S., the
relatives OF the latter sent the boy to
Hawesville, KY, to be reared and ed.
ucated under an assumed name, and
since that time nothing has been
known of his fate unless to the rela-
tives OF Mr.. S. alone. They, you can
understand, may have selfish reasons
for wishing him to remain in ignor-
ance OF his own origin, for there was,
and may get be, considerable proper
ty at stake"
"And the story is a true one in all re-
spects?
"True in every word, syllable and
letter. withhold names for prudent
reasons, but there are many men
and women in Louisville to day who
can read the record and fiji up the
blanks without hesitation. Lizzie
Carlton fills an humble grave in the
Western cemetery at Louisville, enjoy
ing that peaceful rest which mans in
humanity denied to the living"

The Race Across the Atlantic.

The yacht Coronet, winner Of the ocean race,
arrived at New York last week. Captain Cros-
by was interviewed by Herald reporter, and
we quote as follows:
"What do think of racing across the West
crn Ocean in the month of March,:
swell, those who went across with me can
tell you.
81 have been at sea forty-five years, and
never saw the wind blow as hard, nor such Il
continuation of nasty weather rs we encoun-
tered. The newspapers have exaggerated
everything but their descriptions Of the gales
and cyclones"
"What do you think of the Dauntless, Cap
tain:"
1.-The Dauntless has been good boat In her
day, but that has long since passed. I knew
what to expect at that season of the year and
than crossed In her. When We reached the
other side the Engishmen were most enthusi-
astic and for days had given us up az lost.
Never has there been such March on the Irish
coast in fifty years. 1t was almost miracle
| that we reached Queenstown without an acct
| dent to crew or vessel.
Your navigation, Captain, shows that you
came within fifty miles of the great circle.
Was not that remarkable for a sailing vessel?'

The Last Of Earth.

THE PARTING WORDS OF AN HONEST SOUL
When death shall close my eyes from sight
And earth ana SEA fade into night
" hen folded hands shall calmly rest
Forever still oer pulseless breast
" hen Joy and love 10 more shall thrill
The silent heart with strength and will;
Let no fond friend be bowed with grief,
And pity for ny unbclief
Let no SCI phrases mar the sense
From stranger lips Of eloqucnce;
No glttcring speech for errors past
Give justice first, and mercy last.
Think not because the form lies there.
Tint faults are changed to virtues rare:
No alchcmiSt can turn to gold
The droSs that fingered there of old.
Above my clay 10 dirgcs deep,
No prayers to ease my dreamleSs sleep:
No chant to soothe my spirit shriven
10 worlds in ;iir-the christians heaven.
But rather let with tender grace
The tear drop fall on upturned face:
Let fragrant flowers around he laid
With pure>t tnts of light ana shade
Let loving words by friend be said,
In tender memory of the dead:
And let the ones who knew me best.
In sorrow guard my dreanlcss rest
III ever have Glanced TO hold
One ray of light to larkened soul
If sympathetic words apart
Have ightened any burdencd heart
Then lei the credit there he mine,
With coiiincd form for sacred shrine.
With banded hair, and peaceful look
Instead of psalm and giltie,l book.
Let >unshine's golden glory fall
In floods of light above my pail;
Let trees their dancing shadows throw.
Across my breast and marble brow.
Let birds pour forth their sweetest notes,
While subtle perfume upward floats,
From flowers laid there by loving thought
And wreaths which friendships hand hail
wrought.
80 let me sleep. at sunset laid,
Beneath the green and quiet shade,
Where twilight lews shall softly fail,
And tender nature guardeth all.
